O J Brigance for Ravens ROH

Just finished watching a bit on the tube about OJ, and it got me thinking about him as a candidate for the Ravens Ring of Honor. If you consider the actual criteria as to the type of person the organization deems qualified, and you consider his "body of work" (sorry, I prefer not to use wikipedia as a source, but didn't see anything else that worked well) as a football player, he seems to be a slam dunk gimme to be included.

I know there are periodic threads where this guy or that are debated as why they should or should not be honored, but Brigance is quite a guy. IMHO, he ought to be the next man up for induction.

Re: O J Brigance for Ravens ROH

I would like to see OJ Brigance, and the rest of th Baltimore CFL Colts in the ROH? I still think it was those sold out CFL home games that showed Art Modell that Baltimore was a great place for an NFL team. If only OJ makes it in, I'll take it.

Re: O J Brigance for Ravens ROH

As someone with Cerebral Palsy from being born 2 months early, I use canes to get around, used to play a lot of sports in my younger days. I'm luckier then most with CP but Wow OJ Brigance is a better man then me that's for sure. I'm not so sure I could do what he has done. Powerful stuff. Anybody that hates Ray Lewis needs to watch that as well.

has there ever been more then 1 player inducted in the same season other then the colts players? I would be ok with OJ going in next year and waiting a year until Ray goes in then the following year put Heap in followed by Reed then maybe Ozzie if he is done being GM at that time. I have the next 5 years planned lol
